Could you be a bit more specific on what you mean by hard news content? Like just the top few stories from each news source from each day?

Only for dedicated magazines are the posts automated. I do manually curate and post news links in its own magazine though.

We need more content

I spun up an instance because I dislike what Reddit is doing and I want to support this community and help it grow.

Regarding the content you are talking about: https://fediverse.boo/magazines

I've set up automatic news feeds from the BBC, NPR, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and CNN so far to their own magazines. That way you can subscribe to a specific magazine to get articles from the publishers you like. (I'm also still tweaking how much content gets pulled in so its not too much or too little). I also have a catch-all news magazine that I manually curate news article links for.

I plan on adding additional magazines that aggregate links from other websites (not just news) but I am waiting to hear from the community on what content they would like to see.

Ok, thats my like 30 second elevator spiel about my instance and my magazines. Definitely drop me some feedback if there is any additional content I should automatically add to dedicated magazines. Hope to see some new people jumping into discussions on posts over there!

Sommeliers have always been a strange concept to me anyways

I'm just waiting for them to add AI to the wine itself since they wanna add AI to everything nowadays

I'm trying to understand why we are cramming AI and machine learning into EVERYTHING. I myself am a software engineer so naturally I welcome a lot of new tech but I am also wary of new tech too.

Elections are one of those things that should be done as analog as possible. Introducing AI and the internet is only going to make it more possible for people to actually change elections through hacking and subterfuge.

" The lesson I took from that experience was simple: Trying to defeat charismatic men with facts and logic is a fool’s errand."

And from what we've seen over the last few years, it unfortunately doesn't even take that much charisma to take charge of a meaningful amount of people

Never heard that quote before, its a good one. Feels quite applicable after the last few years we've had

I'm ok if people with money want to throw their money at experimental treatments to try. I do take issue with locking life saving medicine behind high price tags.

The article mentions Ozempic and Wegovy which are new weight loss drugs (originally intended for diabetics), I believe I read in a different article that those cost $10k/yr. From my understanding, most of the use of them have been for fad weight loss instead of it going to the people that it was intended for (and might need it). Insurance is already a pain when it comes to medications, I'm sure for medications like this where its a fad medication on top of having legitimate uses it is even harder to get insurance to pay.

inb4 articles like: "America, and its great pay wall"

I look forward to more advances in genome research and diagnostics. Although we may be several more decades out before seeing treatment plans make it through research and FDA trials
